"His kiss was poisonous and it would have killed me if I weren't already dead. "
In a kingdom ruled by a dark queen, only one hope remains. Snow White, the beautiful princess who’s heart was as pure as a white rose. People say she is locked up in the highest tower of the castle, trapped, a prisoner inside those walls. Others say she can never save them. Snow White was ignored by the Queen everyday until, on her eighteenth birthday, she stole the title of fairest of them all from her. Outraged, she sends her guards to get her and kill her only to learn that Snow had escaped.
Outraged, the Queen dipped an apple in poison to finish Snow White off. A poison so powerful, it could stop anyone's heartbeat at a simple bite. But, the Queen didn't stop there. Out of the apple, she made a Prince. A handsome poisonous prince, who's kiss could kill anybody. A prince, sent to kill Snow White before she rebelled against the Queen for good.
And that's how our story starts, where Snow becomes a fighter, the Prince becomes a killer and hope becomes a flame.
This is a dark fairytale retelling with action, swordfights, cursing, etc so don't read if you're not old enough too.
“My lips are the guns, my smile is the trigger, my kisses are the bullet, label me a killer. “

Sixteen-year-old Mila has caught the attention of the (soon-to-be) widowed king. She, however, has no desire to be queen, much less the wife of the disgusting old man. She longs for the freedom to develop her rare and forbidden gift of magic and to choose a future with her lifelong best friend, Alfrid. But what little hope she has for autonomy is lost when the Queen of Direwood plummets to an untimely death. She soon finds herself the reluctant bride of the vile, controlling king, step-mother to his dead-eyed twelve-year-old daughter and an unprepared participant in the trials of court politics. Her only comfort comes from the apothecary-who offers the young queen an opportunity to cultivate her magic and a plan to secure her future. But in time, the entire palace begins to doubt Mila's ability to provide an heir. Desperation turns to resentment when she discovers the king's mistress is with child. But it is the vindictive actions of the king that lead Mila to realize that he'll destroy her if she doesn't destroy him first, tempting her to use her gifts in darker, dangerous ways.Complete

Now, I know what you're thinking. It's just some dumb Snow White story- who would ever want to read that? Well, this version of Snow White is a little... different. Mainly because it's TRUE! See, when I told the story to the Grimm brothers, they just had to change it! We'll make it more popular, they said. No one wants to read a story with a queen for a heroine- lets make it about a princess instead. So, they ended up making the version you've read countless times, about to read it again because your younger sister just HAS to hear it again. Another thing to complain about? Well, when they changed the story they unknowingly put a curse on me! So now I have to stay old forever until someone reads the true Snow White story. And, my lucky reader, that someone is you! So, read on, let me escape my curse, and enjoy! Just becaus eit's true doesn't mean it's boring! I'll even start you off! Once upon a time...Complete
Grimm (DISCONTINUED)
DISCONTINUED Basically just a fairytale retelling of Snow White, Rose Red, Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella, and some other stories. I might mix in some folklore/mythology characters as well, but idk. Also there isn't much romance. And Prince Charming is the villain. I'm in the midst of writing new chapters, so the updates will be slow. Tw: forced marriage, abuse (spousal), rape, rebellion, death, homophobia, misogyny, and please tell me if missed anything. These are all kinda important to the plot so if you're sensitive to them just don't read it.Complete

Reflection (Neverland Archives I)
Mirror, Mirror, on the wall, You'll turn ruby as you fall... Mirror, Mirror, on the wall, No more fairest of them all... ~~~ Ebony lives in the Mirror Palace, where the Crystal Queen rules all she sees. At least, Ebony thinks she's alive. No one seems to be able to see her--not even Ebony herself, when she looks into a mirror. The only time anyone notices Ebony is during the day, when they walk past her in the gardens--or use her for various things, such as a coat rack or a convenient shadow-caster. During these moments, Ebony wants nothing more than to speak, to be heard--but Ebony can't speak, or move, or even breathe, because Ebony is little more than a statue, frozen in marble. She doesn't know why she comes alive after the sun sets, or why she can run all the way into the Faerie Forest and still find herself back in the gardens once the moon is gone. Ebony doesn't know much of anything at all, except that she loves Prince Castor, who spends every afternoon reading in the shade she casts, and that she fears the Crystal Queen. Ebony believes that she'll be trapped in marble forever, but with the arrival of Henric, a huntsman hired by the Crystal Queen to track a rare white hart, her fate begins to change...
